Mumbai: In the sacred Hindu calendar, the month of Shravan (Sawan) is dedicated entirely to Lord Shiva – the deity of transformation, inner strength, and divine love. Known for its deep spiritual energy, this month is considered especially powerful for devotees seeking blessings in the form of marriage, prosperity, or peace. It’s believed that whatever is sincerely asked of Lord Shiva during this holy period is granted with divine grace.

For those facing delays or obstacles in marriage due to astrological doshas (flaws in their kundli or birth chart), Shravan offers a rare window of opportunity. Simple spiritual remedies observed with devotion during this month are said to dissolve such issues and bring about auspicious marriage prospects. Here are five Shravan remedies to help overcome marriage- problems and invite harmony into your personal life.

5 Powerful Shravan Remedies for Timely and Happy Marriage

1. Observe Shravan Somvar Fast and Offer Prayers to Lord Shiva

Fasting on every Monday of Shravan (Shravan Somvar) is considered extremely auspicious. On this day, devotees should perform abhishek (ritual bathing) of the Shivling with pure water, milk, honey, bel leaves, and dhatura (a sacred offering). Chant the mantra ‘Om Namah Shivaya’ 108 times. This ritual is believed to bless one with a suitable and loving life partner.

2. Feed a Red Cow with Roti and Jaggery

To remove obstacles in marriage, offer a roti (Indian flatbread) with a piece of jaggery to a red-coloured cow during Shravan. As per astrological beliefs, this small act of kindness significantly increases the chances of a timely marriage and blesses the marital life with happiness and stability.

3. Perform Rudrabhishek during Shravan

Rudrabhishek – a sacred Vedic ritual where Lord Shiva is worshipped with mantras and offerings – is considered highly beneficial during Shravan. Performing or sponsoring this puja is said to eliminate marital doshas from the kundli and open new paths toward finding a compatible partner.

4. Worship Goddess Parvati with Traditional Symbols of Marriage

In Hinduism, Goddess Parvati symbolises marital bliss and commitment. During Shravan, offer her red bangles, vermilion (sindoor), kumkum, and bindis – all symbols of marital fortune. Alongside, chant ‘Om Hreem Gauryai Namah’ daily. This practice is believed to invoke the Goddess’s blessings and attract a suitable marriage alliance soon.

5. Listen to or Recite the Divine Story of Shiva-Parvati Marriage

Listening to or reading the mythological tale of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati’s divine union during Shravan holds deep spiritual significance. Doing so is said to remove hurdles in one’s own marriage journey and bring divine blessings for a harmonious relationship.
